Lonesome Dove screams epic. The trade paperback is 858 pages long; the story features dozens of perspectives, and tells of a cattle drive around 1877 by twenty people of 2,600 head over 3,000 miles from the Texas borderland to Northern Montana. This is a very celebrated book. It didn't just win the ...
You know how everyone says this book is great? Well, me too. This book is great. I laughed and cried! Well, not really, but I came about as close to crying as I've come since [b:Where the Red Fern Grows.|10365|Where the Red Fern Grows|Wilson Rawls|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/126645016...
When Cowboys and Aliens came out, I was basically ecstatic – cowboys in space with Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig? Yes, please! I didn’t watch it at the time because I was in school, but a few weeks ago, my snake-in-the-grass intern lured me to watch it. So, I can never get those fifteen hours of my...
When I've built my time machine, remind me to never, EVER, visit the Great Plains of 19th century America. Seriously. I think every young man at one point or another has had the romantic notion of just taking their dog and riding horseback, camping and hunting and moving along, seeing the world and ...
I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO ANGRY WITH THE BOOK BEFORE!900 pages. I cannot believe it. I kept reading and expecting some story line. What a joke!About half way through I hoped things will improve. I started getting attached to the characters. But then people started dying and after awhile it got so gloomy ...
An enjoyable book overall. The characters were colorful and well-drawn, and the story moved along at a decent pace. The first third of the book was the best, I think. The ending was kind of disappointing. I certainly don’t require happily-ever-after, but this seemed a bit flat and pointless. I’m not...

I absolutely loved this. There are so many wonderful characters to know and love (and not love) as they make their journey with the cattle. I loved Gus and the way he dealt with issues and especially Call, who is utterly frustrating at times. Doesn't take long for these characters to come to life...
3 1/2I stayed up until 6am to finish this and right now I feel like my head has been run over by a herd of cows. I was never that interested in cowboy and indian stories, or about the Wild Wild West with men running around on horses, but I'm glad I read this one as I did very much enjoy it. However,...
